My car near completion...

My TT is undergoing the Gemballa custom wide body conversion and so far I must say that both Raj and Victor at VCE have done a great job!

The wheels in the pic are loaner, my wheels are being painted and should be put back on next Mon/Tue.

The wing blade on the rea spoiler is being wrapped with CF and also should be done mid-next week.

After the exterior is completed the car will be sent to Lucent for some final tuning on the Gemballa 3rd intercooler & power intake pipes...also a few other interior mods.

After months of wait everything seems to be coming together now...

Thanks for the compliment! The cost for the conversion (excluding Gemballa parts) is quite reasonable, Raj at VCE is very fair and does excellent work...send me a PM and I'll give you the figure.

Yeah...the Gemballa parts are very EXPENSIVE...I traded in my TechArt body kit to offset most of the cost.

Thanks! The car should look even better after the black-painted wheels, CF mirros, & CF wing blade are installed.

The side vents need some sort of CF surround, they look way to plain in the pictures.
